About Cornelius

Cornelius "Corey" Human is a PACFA counsellor based on the Gold Coast, Australia, with 18 years of practice. He works with adults who want to manage anger, stress and relationship strain. Sessions are held in English and Afrikaans.

Corey focuses on straightforward, practical conversation. He helps people notice patterns that lead to snapping, resentment or recurring conflict. He uses clear tools to change unhelpful habits and to rebuild trust in relationships.

He draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people identify thoughts and behaviours that keep anger active. Attachment-based ideas shape work around trust and closeness in relationships. Emotionally-Focused Therapy and client-centred skills guide how he responds in the room.

Corey has worked with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions and grief, and with issues around parenting, intimacy and career pressures. He also supports people dealing with ADHD, compassion fatigue and identity questions such as LGBT concerns.

People who come for anger work often want clearer boundaries and less reactivity. Corey uses practical exercises, communication practice and reflective tasks between sessions. He aims for small, steady changes people can use at home and at work.

To begin, readers are asked to use the site matching process and schedule an initial session. Payment operates via a cancellable subscription that varies by location.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and learning to act in line with personal values rather than react. It suits people who want practical moves to reduce reactivity and rebuild relationships. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. It provides concrete exercises and skills to interrupt angry responses and change routines. Attachment-Based Therapy pays attention to how early relationship patterns affect trust and closeness, which helps when anger is tied to fear of abandonment or distance.

Finding the right approach is normally collaborative. Corey will talk through what you want to change and try methods that fit your goals and preferences. He adjusts what he uses as practical results and feedback emerge from sessions.

The site asks you to use the matching process to begin, so please confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, keep check-ins shorter when needed, and reduce travel time. Different approaches allow for skill practice between sessions and role-play during meetings, which often helps with anger and communication work.
